Constant lurker so if I don't get protocol correct my apologies. Is there a parts list by chance so we can get started on collecting parts?

Hi Max, Is this still available? Steve

If there's a purchase list, put me on it!

I'm sure it's been discussed before but I couldn't find a suitable method for heavily scratched pieces. I required some rare pieces (8 x 8 black dishes) and few were even close to decent shape. After a lot of googling and thought, I hit upon an idea. I polished first with 6000 grit sand paper, then 7000 grit. I would finish off with the "rough" portion of a jeweler's cloth and then the soft side. It won't make them look brand new but I was astonished at how well it worked. I'd say they went from poor or fair shape to good or very good. Just wanted to spread the word.

Hey I'm Steve. Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm big into pirate, sci fi, and Star Wars themes. Particularly MOCs! Anyone here from the Austin, TX area?

One alternative is to use a 1x4 RB brick and two 87552 RB panels per brick as a replacement. I did this (haven't built yet) as a substitute. I also got lucky and found a seller with about 50 actual panels selling them DIRT CHEAP.

Has anyone constructed this? I was wondering how "firmly" the rocket is held in place. I have an issue with cats climbing around and knocking it off the horizontal display pieces.

Yep that's what I was wondering about. Thanks!

Bricksmarlin, thanks for the info. Two questions: what do you mean by shorter and longer ones and what color(s)? DBG?

The interior pics seem to show the the dark tread part no 3873 running the length but I can't find it listed in the parts list. Can someone help out?

Awesome ship! Have you started building yet?

Are the instructions still for sale?
